Pros
AWHONN guidelines
Cons
You have no say in your schedule and they take advantage of that. Staff will not switch with you. Travelers are first to float as helping hands or 1:1 but the units will try to give you an assignment or have you pass all their meds. I’ve only ever done OB so I was very uncomfortable with that. You can be floated multiple times a night to different units by the house supervisor and multiple times a week because they don’t have a lot of deliveries. I had a 48 hour contract and would be floated sometimes all 4 of my shifts. Some of the staff nurses are bitter about having travelers and make comments about your pay rate if you need help or ask a question they assume you should know.

Pros
I have been traveling with ADEX and Lana as my recruiter for nearly 4 years now! I have never had to “fight” for my pay or stipends. Lana has always been my advocate to each facility I’ve traveled too. Lana responds quickly and handles any of questions very quickly. I had gone through several agencies and recruiters before landing with Lana at Adex and I highly recommend them both!
Cons
I actually have nothing bad I can say
